Use case or problem
With Auto pair brackets on, typing a single quote/apostrophe ('
) after a link (internal [[…]]
or external […](…)
) inserts a duplicated apostrophe.
I would argue that a single apostrophe should be inserted instead:
- This helps a lot with the common case of possessive “'s” (like in John’s), when the word before 's is in a link.
- A word is never directly followed by double quotes (
'…'
) anyway (without a space in-between), so inserting a double apostrophe is unhelpful in this case.
Proposed solution
Typing '
after a link (external or internal) should insert a single apostrophe.
The same should probably be done with other types of quotes (like double quotes).
